Data in intelligent approach for estimation of disc cutter life using hybrid metaheuristic algorithm

This data in brief presents the monitoring data measured during shield tunnelling of Guangzhou–Shenzhen intercity railway project. The monitoring data includes shield operational parameters, geological conditions, and geometry at the site. The presented data were arbitrarily split into two subsets including the training and testing datasets. The field observations are compared to the forecasting values of the disc cutter life assessed using a hybrid metaheuristic algorithm proposed for “Prediction of disc cutter life during shield tunnelling with artificial intelligent via incorporation of genetic algorithm into GMDH-type neural network” [1]. The presented data can provide a guidance for cutter exchange in shield tunnelling.
